payday 2 was kind of a cosy game where me and my friend would do heists whilst making tea and fetching snacks.

shadow raid? More like food raid 😊

naw unfortunately not. It’s kind of crazy that they nestle each individual engine within a wrapper. I’m not sure of this brings the api level to d3d11, or if they had to work to bring each engine up for that. Somewhat explains why MCC as a whole was so difficult to back port improvements to, like configurable FOV and weapon model placements, frame rate unlocking and interpolation, custom keybinds, missing assets and such.

it’s kind of interesting seeing the player models rendered in UE when you use the customisation menus; everything looks so glossy and odd.

no you’re cool

The ‘wrapper’ around each of the individual halo engines is in unreal and is arguably the wost thing about the collection from a reliability standpoint.

That said, they’d definitely be able to find people suited for the work, provided said people agent already scared away by stories of the work culture at 343i / MS

okay cool but it works with a usermode module in Linux for now, and will probably continue to do so.

slipspace was just an iteration of blam with a marketing name slapped on top, and cost them dearly in any case :/

O’Connor, Ross, Wolfkill, and several others.

yeah chances are they’ll stick with EAC and continue to be friendly towards the steam deck (and indirectly towards desktop Linux as a whole)

It means a couple things I guess.

It’ll probably still run bad thanks to associated technologies like nanite (see relevant threat interactive video).

They’re not longer constrained by the technical debt of blam engine.

I feel like I’m being needlessly nitpicky but the animation of chief brandishing the energy sword at the end looks so clunky and awkward.

though generally speaking, the visuals are tight.

Sounds about right. I suppose they also want to distance themselves as much as possible from the antics of frank o’connor’s 343i with a brand move like this.

I wonder which retcons they’ll retcon. Will the foreunners be human again? Will the events of 4, 5 and infinite just be one big fever dream?

waiting for the name & shame. what an absolute tosser

Echo Point Nova (Steam)

(Made by the same folks behind Severed Steel) A short and sweet, low-fi yet beautiful co-op (and optionally PVP) movement shooter with extremely satisfying projectile mechanics, destructible environments and a gorgeous soundtrack by Floating Door. Zip through at ridiculous speeds across a series of mysterious floating islands with your hoverboard and grapple beam. Inch closer to god-like power as you progress.

Definitely not for everybody but there’s a demo (which can also be played in co-op) available on the store page.

dw lil homie u got all the rizz in the world
